Videos with 6 DOF demo units (HMI trade show 2016)

Martin Raak | 2. May 2016

The 2 videos show robolink® prototype units with 6 DOF each, using our standard RL-D joints as well as our new RL-S joints (strain wave gears). These units are NOT yet a product. I will explain more about the ideas and technology in later entries. 3x RL-D (axis 1-3) and 3x RL-S (axis 4-6) 4x […]

robolink® NEWS at HMI 2016, strain wave gears

Martin Raak | 22. April 2016

At Hannover trade show next week (HMI 2016) we will present several new components and and possible options for our robolink® building block kit. Main new product is our new strain wave gear RL-S. We will present 2 sizes (RL-S-17 and RL-S-20) as prototypes. With these gears we show 2 prototypes of possible 6 axis […]

robolink D kit sets for up to 4 DOF

Martin Raak | 19. February 2016

4 DOF. As our joints are available in 3 Sizes: -50, -30 and -20, we suggest to possible designs: SMALL version (SV): RL-D-30-102 (base rot.) / RL-D-30-101 / RL-D-20-101 / RL-D-20-101 (3 pivoting joints). BIG version (BV): RL-D-50-102 (base rot.) / RL-D-50-101 / RL-D-30-101 / RL-D-20-101 (3 pivoting joints).   picture small version assembly (gripper […]

reverse play (backlash) for RL-D

Martin Raak | 11. February 2016

our customers often ask about the backlash (or reverse play) for our RL-D joints. It is obvious, that any worm gear is NOT backlash free. The backlash of our lubrication free plastic worm gear (usually combined with an aluminium HC worm shaft) can be influenced by temperature or payload. We have now measured the reverse play for different […]
